Reiki TreatmentWhat Does it Involve?A typical Reiki treatment involves the client lying on a massage couch, fully clothed within the relaxing confines of my treatment room. On lying down on the treatment table the client may be asked to close their eyes while taking a series of slow deep breaths, focussing on the feeling of relaxation as the breath leaves the body during exhalation. At the same time the Reiki practitioner will connect and become attuned to the clients energy by closing their own eyes, and gently resting their hands on, or slightly above the clients body.
The practitioner may then perform a series of stationery hand positions, usually starting at the head and working down the body. The hands are placed on, or just above the body, depending on the area being worked on and the comfort of the client. Throughout the treatment, the Reiki practitioner focuses on drawing on, and channelling, life force energy into the client. In addition ancient Reiki Symbols may be used by the Reiki practitioner which serves to make the effect of the treatment more powerful. A practitioner’s focussed intent is a key factor - as it is from this intent that all other actions stem. Throughout the treatment, intuitive Reiki is used, where by the practitioner picks up on the energy flow within the client’s body, and directs their focus towards any blocks or issues that may come to light. These blockages in energy are either felt through the palms of the hands as changes in sensation or energy flow, or by the therapist's intuition guiding to problem areas. It is the skill of intuitive Reiki that I personally have spent a great deal of time learning and practicing so that the treatments I provide are as effective as possible. Throughout the treatment the client often feels sensations of warmth radiating from the Reiki practitioners hands, and this is perfectly normal. The client may also experience deep relaxation, and may even fall asleep. You may find my information about Reiki session prices useful.
